Re: Axis 206 Camera issues.

When there was just the single-port WGA, a special piece of software had to run on the cRIO to forward the camera image to the Dashboard. The problem is that the single-port 4-slot cRIO can't be connected that way. Every robot now has an onboard router, so it makes sense to take advantage of it and let the Dashboard program talk to the camera directly. It's easier to support just one configuration, and it's more efficient anyway.
